Life today …

It is the first week in December 2018 and also the last month of this year. I smile to myself reflecting on these past months and the changes I have been guided to make. In January 2018, I was inspired to ‘pause’ my life. I eliminated social media, working with clients, and I even stopped blogging for a few months.

I was on a path once again in search of what? We, you and I are the same. This I know for sure. We are one. We want and need love in our lives, to be loved, accepted, seen and filled with passion daily. We need to have a purpose. I discovered that I needed to begin at the beginning. Clueless as to where that was, I went back to 2001 where the journey of my education into the realm of Spirituality began.

As an avid reader my entire life, books have always fueled my soul. I graduated from high school in 1969 was married in 1971 and a mom in 1977. Empty nest syndrome after raising four brilliant children took me on a journey into life in 2001, experiencing all that I needed to release and to empower myself by loving who I am as I am. Schools, Teachers, online Workshops and Retreats would nourish my body, mind, and soul.

As women, we are born into a role that is generational in many ways. My mom had many rules. Her major one was ‘dressing the bed’ immediately upon awakening. I was raised to be a wife, mother, and homemaker. I was to nurture and nourish my husband and children. These were her greatest tools she gifted me with: to food shop, cook, clean, iron and do it all with love. I also learned the power of being silent from her. In reflection, I have to acknowledge that I continue to do as I was raised. WOW! Amazingly my mom raised me well.

The many life changes I have manifested since 1969 has been always filled with love. I recall, when I wanted to go to college to be a teacher. To be told by my parents, “no,” because I would get married, have babies and keep house, did not upset me. It was the silence within that fueled me to go with the flow! I agreed! Why go to college? (Afterall, my parents only went up to the 6th grade themselves!)

It’s the ‘pauses,‘ we take in life that light the way to connect us to our truth. It’s 2018, and IAM an Evolutionary Guide; Teacher of Spiritual belief, blogger/writer and I empower others to live their truth by my alternative beliefs as a metaphysical practitioner. We as a society believe that we know what is best for others but the truth is we do not! We are all teachers and we all have lessons to learn. It is in accepting people as they are that is the greatest of challenges. Everyone shows you who they are by their words and actions! All you have to do is pay attention.

We as spiritual beings have an inner guidance system that plants the seeds of our dreams to manifest when we begin to water them. I am living proof. It may have taken me a lifetime, but I know that which fuels my soul and which I am passionate about is being of service.

This being of service comes in the format of saying ‘yes’ to life, this life today! I have learned that I can only change myself. I cannot change another! Family drama is the biggest relationship issue in most families. Still, everyone has free will to do as they please during their life experience. Look around at those you have relationships with and the many choices they make in life that are harmful to you or another. Accept them! Pray for them! Love them! That is all that is required of any of us.

When it comes to being of service the choice one chooses may be any of the following …

sharing stories through the written word or in groups,

listening to another’s story of fear, pain, sorrow with an open mind,

praying for others and sending them energy and love always,

being present and aware daily by choosing love and kindness to express at all times.

Being of service is a free action and plan that can be incorporated into all our lives; women, men, and children! The only cost is to open our hearts with love and kindness! To not be critical or judgmental! Mostly, to be aware of our thoughts, words, and actions! To do no harm is key to being of service. We must always remember that our children are watching us and we are their teachers!

“Never, never, never give up…” – Winston Churchill

It may sound simple but is it? Since 2003, I learned the power of positive thoughts and emotions that affect the body, mind, and soul. It’s interesting when we catch ourselves with negative thoughts and words towards another. The truth is we become ill. It is a darkness that settles within and must be released with thoughts of love, joy, kindness, and acceptance.

Life, today for me, has gifted me with endurance, strength, adaptability, and wisdom. These are the qualities of letting go and trusting that God has a plan for everyone.

Endurance to accept others as they are.

Strength to not be judgmental or critical of another.

Adaptability to go with the flow in all situations.

Wisdom to accept others to choose how they want to live their lives.

During my ‘pause’ I went deep into the depths of my being through meditation. I also became a vegan after watching the movie “What the Health?” Super herbs, Superfoods, Juicing, Raw foods, Minerals, and educating myself on all that would inspire me to live a healthy life began this year.

A change was surfacing once again in my life. I would discover a past teacher, David Wolfe and a new teacher Lars Rain Gustafsson and his online teaching platform The UEXL Master Mind Club Membership which is a Professional & Personal Development Mentorship Community. (bodymindinstitute.com) I signed up to learn how to set up my online teaching platform that will be birthed in 2019.

Miracles and the unseen world of spirit developed through going within and enlightened me to a new path of service by taking me into the world of the internet. I look forward to my online teaching platform in 2019. I learned that silence is the essence of my truth. It has served me well to be silent during challenging times.

In the next few weeks, the holidays will welcome in a New Year! Goals will be set, as we plan for the big picture of our lives, by taking action, and what we can develop for personal growth will set us on our way for 2019.

If you set any goals, may one of them be to choose Love in all confrontational, ugly, unkind, situations? This does not mean that you have to continue to be in a relationship with such a person. Accept their choice and move on! Many of us believe we need to make things right but we do not! We cannot! All we can do is accept one another with love in our hearts for ourselves and them.

My list is a small one but accurate for me at this time on my journey:

to open totally to Source for spontaneity,

to share all the wisdom and knowledge I am gifted with as an Evolutionary guide through my online community by teaching universal truths,

to love all of life and be in harmony with; people, animals, nature, and God.

Mostly to continue learning for my self-mastery as a responsible, being of freedom, to contribute to humanity in service!
